Sleeve Rolling
Lay uniform flat and
                                smooth out any wrinkles




  Ensure cuff is fully-
extended and the cuff flap is
fastened to the first button
Turn sleeve inside out. Slide
                              the cuff up to and over sleeve
                                            pocket, covering
                                   approximately half of the
                              pocket (distance will vary due
                                 to different sleeve lengths)


  Continue to smooth fabric
and remove any wrinkles
throughout the entire
folding process
Fold outer edge of sleeve to
                                estimated midpoint of light-
                                            colored material

                                         < 3”


  Folds must be less than 3”
to ensure the final fold will
completely cover all light-
colored material
Fold new outer edge of
                              sleeve to the bottom edge
                                              of the cuff




  Continue to smooth fabric
to aid proper folding
Fold the cuff over the
                               light-colored material of
                                              the sleeve

                                       3”
  Tweak and peak fabric
and ensure all folds are
completely hidden
underneath the cuff. Once
complete, rolled sleeve will
form a 3” wide band
Repeat the same steps for
                               the other sleeve. Try to
                             match fold measurements
                              to create uniform length


  When worn, the distance
from the bottom of the
sleeve to the elbow should
be approximately 2”
This fashion of rolling sleeves is designed to allow quick
unrolling. To unroll, grab the cuff only and pull downward
until completely extended. Re-button to fit wrist properly.
